NPR's 'Invisibilia' Comes to KBUT Sunday Afternoons at 3

Invisibilia is Latin for the 'invisible things.' In the case of the popular NPR science program, it's a springboard for exploring the unseen forces behind our behavior – our ideas, beliefs, assumptions, and emotions.
The periodic program returns for a fourth season with three new episodes, the first of which airs this Sunday afternoon at 3 on KBUT.

It's part of KBUT's new Sunday Specials. Each week, we'll hand-pick documentaries, series and one-off specials from the world of public radio.

Invisibiliahosts Alix Spiegel and Hanna Rosin are longtime journalists and producers, and veterans of Radiolab, This American Life, and The Atlanticmagazine.

Crested Butte has finally found its place in the new landscape of the ski industry. They'll join the industry leading Epic Pass from Vail Resorts.

Epic Pass holders will have 7 days at each of the three resorts owned by Triple Peaks LLC, including Okemo in Vermont and Mount Sunapee in New Hampshire. Pass holders at those resorts will receive a 50 percent discount at all Vail owned resorts.

That's because they're essentially eating themselves out of house and home. KBUT's Chad Reich was on hand at a recent Gunnison County Commissioner meeting presentation by the Colorado State Forest Service. He filed this report about the impact of spruce beetles in Gunnison County.

Stephanie Jackson, 33, and Deborah Rudibaugh, 68, were arrested late last week in the disappearance of Jacon Millison, then 29.
In 2015, a family member reported Millison had gone missing. Last summer, human remains were discovered.

Charges included 1st degree murder, tampering with a deceased body, accessory to murder, tampering with a witness or victim, tampering with evidence, concealing a death, and abuse of a corpse.

Gunnison County Undersheriff Mark Mykol reminds the public that these are charges, and that the suspects are innocent until proven guilty.

Antler shed collection regulations have been in effect in Gunnison County and near Eagle for about 10 years. Starting on March 2nd, Colorado Parks & Wildlife is expanding the rules to all public lands west of I-25.

The goal is to allow deer and elk to conserve the remaining food stores during the harsh late winter months and, hopefully, increase their chances of survival.

Wolverines Hockey ends a great season one goal shy of the finals. The Eldo trounces Altitude Painting in Town League hockey action. Titans boys and girls hoops end their season at the district tourney. Locals shine at the Prater Cup, and the Gothic Mountain Tour tests competitors' mettle. Also, KBUT needs your support during the pledge drive. Also, someone watched Wedding Crashers last night.

KBUT's Chad Reich sat down with Center for the Arts Executive Director Jenny Birnie after a recent "Coffee With the Community" event to discuss the progress on new construction as well as progress on fundraising for the 3-phase project that will see expanded studio space and a new versatile theater.

Birnie said she is excited to have more space, especially for dance programs. The new building and theater is expected to open in the summer of 2019.
